Official gameday thread- Duke vs Unc

[JimboSlice00]

Everyone knew the zebras would put their stamp on this gam. Duke is without a doubt the better team but this is ridiculous.
Settle in and I still think slim has to get hot

 

[christophero]

Amazingly enough we are still winning. This is gonna be a nail biter. 9 point lead. At least their fans can't whine about the refs.

 

[JimboSlice00]

Take out the zebras keeping the cheats in it- Duke really smacked them 1st half

 

[christophero]

41-29 at the half. Well done. Only worry is the frontcourt fouls.

This is what bothered me . They are going to attack the frontcourt and try to get them out. I was also worried about Wilson’s jumper

 

[Mac9192]

Very good half, other than our bigs picking up cheap fouls. Wilson had 17 of their 29. Play smart in the second half, and keep at least a two possession lead.

Message to Sarr: Nice half, but both feet have to be BEHIND the line.

 

[christophero]

If the lightbulb has gone on for Sarr this team is a serious contender. If I were Harris I'd be annoyed watching Nik trip over his own feet.

I noticed that too. He has lost his edge since Michigan st . If I’m Scheyer I tell the entire frontcourt to play smart because UNC is going to attack them .

 

[The Only Blue]

First 4 minutes guys

 

[christophero]

Down to 8.

 

[JimboSlice00]

Well Maliq going to need to log heavy minutes. I don’t know I’ve seen a game where the refs have single-handedly kept a team in the game.
Pat was playing so good and they made a decision to eliminate him

 

[The Only Blue]

Refs man

 

[JimboSlice00]

No way these refs don’t have money on this game.

 

[sheyduke]

That was an offensive foul. I’m not blaming the refs but come on man

 

[JimboSlice00]

Refs man

Hate to be that guy but cmon man: there’s no way these refs don’t have money on this. Absolutely terrible officiating

 

[Dad2ze]

It’s all about the Benjamins. Always will be.

 

[The Only Blue]

Ridiculous

 

[JimboSlice00]

You wouldn’t think with Jay’s hard on for Caleb that Boozer has the quietest 22 and 9 in the history of this rivalry

 

[sheyduke]

Let’s go . Boys defend .

 

[The Only Blue]

5 min guys

 

[JimboSlice00]

Why is Evans not in the game? Get his a** off the bench.

I have a bad feeling about this last 3 minutes unfortunately

 

[sheyduke]

Six fouls to their 1 says it all .

 

[MrScary13]

Six fouls to their 1 says it all .

Don't worry, they'll call 3 or 4 quick fouls on the holes ro make it look better.

 

[The Only Blue]

Welp

 

[The Only Blue]

Boozer should've made that. Got him to go for the fake and missed an easy one

 

[sheyduke]

Front court foul trouble cost us this game and why didn’t you look for Trimble on the last play .

 

[Bleediteveryday83]

Refs lost us this game. Super ******* physical, and the holes get one foul called on them. ********

 

[MrScary13]

At some point Scheyer needs to stop being a puss on the sideline and go after the officials. I've never seen a coach let his team get completely railroaded like Jon and set there and say nothing. A young K would have mutilated these officials.

 

[sheyduke]

Come on come to Cameron we beat them by ten bank it .
This is why I said UNC would win . Front court foul trouble and Boozer can not guard. Bring it to Cameron and we will beat them .

 

[DukeCorey21]

Another horrible second half for Duke, only 27 points. Why are they having trouble scoring after halftime?

 

[pisgah101]

How is the entire stadium unloading on the court with time left not a T???

 

[DukeCorey21]

Refs were a joke, sports are so rigged. Betting has ruined it.

 

[pisgah101]

And I’ll firmly say we are the better team.

 

[JimboSlice00]

Everyone knew this wouldn’t be a double digit win, let alone a remotely comfortable win.

You’re saying UNC had a total of 7 fouls the entire game? Really heartbreaking loss and one that can get into a young teams head

 

[DukeCorey21]

Yep 7 fouls all game, miracle

 

[pisgah101]

Only poverty programs rush the court

 

[The Only Blue]

Another horrible second half for Duke, only 27 points. Why are they having trouble scoring after halftime?

Complete opposite of what we were early on where we would win the second half

 

[The Only Blue]

Thank you refs.

 

[Bleediteveryday83]

I thought the crowd rushing the court with time left was supposed to be a technical foul? But I guess not if it's the holes.

 

[christophero]

Only our second loss but sucks losing to these guys. I've heard opposing fans all year say Boozer and Brown get away with fouls so there are 2 ways of looking at our foul trouble. Is what it is. Learn from it and move on. Definitely a pattern in our losses the last few years we seem to play not to lose in some big games. Thought we had turned a corner today but we remain a very good team who are beatable by the right team. Still having a very good season but there are some cracks in the armor. D the last few minutes was poor.
